Surely penalising Women who have to have gynaecological operations, goes against equality at work laws ? Stress induced by bullying employers, or inflexible corporate dogma, makes hard working people more susceptible to other illnesses, putting good employees into a hopeless situation, demoralising them or, in the worst case scenario, facing dismissal for being unfortunate enough to experience several episodes of illness in one year. Employers know who the malingerers are ( or SHOULD, if they are decent employers). Good Employees need support when ill, NOT corporate bullying.

Southeastern do not provide a functioning service. There are frequent delays and cancellations. The service, which a lot of people use to go to work and for their social life, is not reliable. People are having hours added onto their working week because of their incompetence and some are even losing their jobs.

My son committed suicide due to his gambling addiction and the gambling companies do not seem to care about how much devastation they cause.

The Riverside Tavern has been in Strood for as long as I can remember it's a safe haven for the LGBT community, Our night life is dying out here in Medway and this is to date the biggest LGBT venue in Kent. Without the Riverside tavern the LGBT community will be forced to go elsewhere including places that would or could potentiaonally not be safe for them to go!, Our customers feel welcomed and safe here at our venue and therefore the council should keep the riverside tavern as it is and work out a way of building around us instead of moving us on.

This is important to help people have fresh food,so it does not fill up landfill rubbish sites and it also helps people of all cultures to be healthy happy and have fresh food to eat at the table.

In a scene played out across homes across the country inthe first week of January, Martin Coles from Rotherham was anticipating a small glimmer of joy amidst the post-Christmas gloom, when he remembered there was still an unfinished box of Celebrations in the kitchen cupboard. But anticipation turned to despair as he removed the lid to reveal that the half a dozen remaining chocolates all had a familiar blue wrapper. “I was absolutely gutted” he said, “the only chockies left were bleedin’ bastard bollocking Bounties…and I don’t usually swear.” An undercover investigation by The Rotherham Bugle has revealed that the coconut confection is the last in the box in 9 out of 10 packs of Celebrations. Most of the time they’re either foisted off on work colleagues, fed to family pets or dumped with the box. Occasionally they’re eaten at parties by people too drunk to know or care what they’re consuming. The Bounty is the black sheep of the family, the runt of the litter and the one bad apple in the barrel all rolled into one. It has to stop. It's important we do this now, so that the makers Mars can get their act together before next Christmas so that it doesn’t become another festive fiasco on the chocolate front. Let’s work together to banish the Bounty from Celebrations once and for all.

One of the joys of the World Cup is to watch - or try to watch - every game and develop favourites throughout the tournament. 48 teams is counterproductive to that and is just a moneymaking ploy by an organisation which never learns its lesson.

When a company increases its value by growing its business organically it is through the joint efforts of its workforce and shareholders.  Profits reinvested are wages forgone by the workforce as well as dividends forgone by shareholders; moreover customer goodwill is created and sustained by the workforce. But at present only existing shareholders profit from a gain in company value and the contribution of the workforce is unrecognised. A modest annual grant of shares to all employees would redress this injustice.

So much plastic polluting the planet with 3 heads per person per year !

Gas and Electricity are fundamental to our daily lives and the economy. Control of distribution should remain within the control of the UK, not with a consortium of foreign interests that includes countries with a poor record of human rights.

Despite the huge reduction in the use of plastic carrier bags since the 5p charge was introduced they continue to blight our roads, countryside, landfills, waterways and oceans.
